Study of Rotating Solar Panel System

The scarcity of energy is currently the most emergent problem. Conventional energy sources are not only insufficient, but they also contribute significantly to air pollution. Global attention is shifting to renewable energy sources as a means of reducing dependency on conventional energy sources. The use of solar energy as a reliable source of green energy is growing significantly. Solar cells, which convert solar energy into electricity, are pricey and ineffective. The solar tracking gadget is used to improve solar cell performance by keeping an eye on the sun. This study provides a microcontroller-based design strategy that makes the most of solar electricity by tracking the sun all day long. Throughout the day, the solar tracker moves with the sun, from east to west. Throughout the day, the solar tracker moves with the sun, from east to west. Controlling the solar panel to track the sun like a sunflower increases the amount of energy captured. The solar tracking system is a mechatronic device that combines mechanical, electrical, and software components. Standard photovoltaic solar panels (PV), a deep cycle rechargeable battery, a battery charger, a servo motor, a light-dependent resistor, and a “Arduino Uno” microprocessor are the primary parts of the solar tracking system. Light-dependent resistors are used by the solar tracker as sensors.
